Just shows what little you know about Doolittle. He was a left wing Roosevelt Liberal.

"If a gun bill will pass because of the politics of the situation, you must see to it that its burdens are imposed upon a man because of a criminal background and not because he is an ordinary citizen and perhaps poor."

-Gen. James H. Doolittle


So he was for gun control... see!

I don't get it. Half of those girls were dog ugly.



Half of what girls?  If it was the list I made, please list the ones you think are ugly.

As histrocially the enemy ship was American.



I did some research on the internet and found no evidence of the H.M.S. Surprise taking any action against American vessels.  Would you please support your statement.  I'm starting to think it's false.

The ship in the book "Far side of the world " was an American. It was during war of 1812.

Can't believe you left out Catherine Zeta-Jones, even if she is Welsh.

Possibly true, but unfortunetly Hollywood call the shots and when was the last time you saw a movie (mainstream) where the bad guy had an american accent? Their usually british,east european,koreans,chinese, whatever. Anything but American.

Personally it dosn't bother me, mainly because I don't care much for mainstream movies and take anything from Hollywood with a pinch of salt. But it is interesting to just take a moment to note or remember how many movies you can think of where the bad guy  dosn't have a foreign accent of some kind.

Hollywood movies have a huge properganda element, always have done and always will.
